Additionally, RPV will answer as many of your questions from the comments section as possible.

Also in today’s podcast, Shaun Kenney and I discuss the political news. We’re looking for your feedback on what to call this segment. The winner will receive a Bearing Drift t-shirt.

Why does the RPV continue to have conventions to select it’s nominees? The Democrats have primaries. In a state with no party registration, this gives them a huge advantage in voter ID.
